What a truly beautiful world we

mountains, glens, and oceans, and
thousands OF means Of enjoyment. We
can desire no better when in perfect
health; but how often do the MAORI

heartened, discouraged and worn out
with disease, when there is no occa-

can easily obtain satisfactory proof,
that Green's Augua Flo'rer, will make

Sprinkled with Blood.

Correspondence Ne,cs end Courier
CAMDEN, May 27.-Somcthing uncom-
mon happened yesterday evening. A
gentleman with his wife and friend
were driving about one mile south Of
town when all of a sudden the breeze
stopped entirely and the temperature
went up several degrees. The wife
of this gentleman then remarked to
him that there was blood on his ear,
and on turning to hear her he found
that her dress had been spattered with
something like blood. 1t was scatter.
ed just like it had come in shower
What was it? Gould it have been
n shower of blood? Where dli ii
come from? The gentleman says he
can offer no explanation at all. I saw
the spots on his cravat and shirt, and
it is said that the dresses Of the party
were spotted in the same way.

The antipathy of Southerners to sf-
fliate with the colored race was exal-
bited at the National Capital during
the international drill. The Vicks-
burg Southrons and Memphis zouares
refused to parade in the ranks with
colored companies, and returned home.
The occasion was the grand parade
and in the arrangement OF the process
sion these two companies were placed
in the direct rear of criered troups.
Not the dome of the majestic Capitol
nor the Presidents smiling favors to
"his pets was sufficient to overcome
the innate prejudice of these natural
Southerners. Here their course is
respected, and the like may at any
time be expected till another century
rolls itself into the past, if not forever.
The Washington Post of the 26th
instant, says E:
Within half an hour after the Of
Tended companies had marched off in
dignantly to tLeir tents, the Presld-
ent of the United States was shaking
hands cordially with those same col
ored soldiers and welcoming them to
the White House.

zens of Clarendon, that it is copied in
the TINES. The Clarendonite will just
substitute Manning for Sumter and
for the Sumter papers, the Manning
publications. The Watchnaan secured
it from the Greenrlle Ne,cs:

The Roman Catholic figures for COM
municants, It is explained, are estimat-
ed on the bases OF 100000 Catholic
population, and on the ratio Of CON-
municauts to population q to LTD
found to obtain in other denomina
tions. This is, however, too low in
the case Of the Roman Catholic Church,
in which the proportion of actual COM
municants to membership is conspic-
uously large.
The total communicates deducting
the 100000 Catholic population is
12,O1S,977, which represents the Pro-
testantism of our country.
The article also Classics the de-
nominations according to polity or

whole OF this exceedingly instructive
contribution to ecclesiastical history.

MORE PLAIN FACTS.

The TINES last week contained an
editorial the gist of which was to urge
the people to look to the interest Of
home; to patronize home industries:
home professions, and home mer-
chants, The money spent here not
only benefits the individual receiving
it, but indirectly it's advantages ez-
tend to the community or county OF
large by general circulation. But
when it is expended abroad its bene-
Sts as far as our county is concerned
are lost. We are constrained to be-
lieve, however, that the citizens Of the
county appreciate this fact and with
proper encouragement would be less
prone to visit neighboring towns to
make their purchases. This duty lies
chiefly with the merchants of our
town. It is their province to invite
and show by their conduct that they
seek and desire the mercantile patron
age Of the people. To do this their
only medium is through the columns
Of the newspapers. They ought to do
ike merchants in every other part OF
this land do,-advertise their goods,
and in this way bring them to the at
tention Of the public. There are no
more irveterate grumblers under the
sun than the Manning merchants
In language more forcible than ele'
giant, they condemn the practice ot
spending money abroad, and yet
good easy fellow-citizens, they si'
quietly with the assumed satisfaction
OF doing their duty, selling to the
poor lienor, and swearing roundiy
at the man who buys suit OF clothes
in Sumter or Charleston. They for:
get that the merchants of these places
advertise in their own home papers
There is no place in this round world
we eyenture to say where the merchants
in a town Ike Manning spend less
smorey for advertising. We again re-
reat that if the merchants of Manning
will do their duty the people will not
be recreant to theirs.

The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1887-06-01

Among the many changes recon-
mended in the Criminal Code Of the
State, is the proposition advanced by
the Bishopville Enterprise te elect
County Solicitors, instead Of Solicitors
fer the Circuits. Tnis strikes US as
worthy of very careful consideration
l,y the electors of the county. The
s-es:irses:ss Solicitor, it is properly argued,
is comparative stranger to the mass
es outside of his own county and con-
seeuently is ignorant Of the sentiments
and opinions of the Individuals COM
posing the juries. 4 crime Of high
nature is committed and the Solicitor
comes to the Court with the bare
knowledge of the perpetration, and
that he must prosecute somebody sus-
pected. The public mind is swayed
one way or the other which effects the
jury drawn fresh from the people,
though, perhaps, unconsciously. And
there is host of witnesses to be ex-
anined, who have also imhibed the
general prejudice. These stumbling
blocks, with Il, few hours allotted to
him, have to be met and conbated
By the prosecuting officer. This ne
cannot eftectually do, or what IS worse,
he may be in ignorance OF the obsta,
clesin his way. The case is called,
the Solicitor plods through the tedi-
Gus trial realizing at every step that
his witnesses are more zcaiously dis
posed to aid the accused than assist
the State, er then to his extreme cha
grin he discovers that the defence has
engineered juror on the panel who
is openly opposed to conviction. The
case finally ends, the criminal is turn
ed loose, and all because the Solicitor
was stranger, necessarily to the mi
nutia, or what may be better express
ed to the cups and downs OF his case.
This does not happen always but it
can and very frequently does occur,
and here too, Notwithstanding the
third circuit has most able solicitor.
The remedy may be, as suggested
BY our Bishopylle contemporary,
10 have Solicitors or prosecuting Of
fcers in every county. Residing
then at the place of the crime they
would be able to become familiar with
i in all of its details, with the evidence
to be ased at the prosecution, and
when the Court convened, the prose-
cutting officer would be thoroughly
prepared to represent fully the whole
interest of the State. He would also
lave personal acquaintance with tlc
members OF the jury and could make
abortive the effort to corrupt the pan
sl. There is no doubt this change in
the administration of justice. would
work as well if not better than the
present system. The cost would be
little if any obstacle to its adoption.
The money aow paid one Solicitor in
the third circuit would most likely be
found sufficient TO employ four, one
for Georgetown, one for Williams
burg, one for Sumter, and one for

GROWTH OF CHRISTIANITY.

UhVN n Vf ChNESIAANA11 L.
The editorial columns of the last
Su,lay Nc,cS contains some interest
ing statiscal information showing the
strength and the comparative strength
of the various religions bodies in
America. The writer complains at
the offset that the denomlnational
statistics in some cases are indefinite,
and fall far below the grade of true
statistical science, but he thinks that
in general they are as accurate as are
other returns of like character and
may be accepted with equal confidence.
Again fault is found that few of the
denominations have not attempted to
set forth their numbers Systematically
until within a few years, as III the case
of the Disciples of Christ, the Friends,
the Mennonites, the Dunkers; and the
Roman Catholic Directory has ommlt-
ted altogether the column of Catholic
population until data for more per-
feet estimate can be secured, but its
returns for priests, churches, ETC., seem
to be sufficiently accurate to quote
The figures given show the present
strength of each denomination III
churches, ministers and communl-
cants, and how much increase has
been gained in the last four years
Quoting further from the intelli-
gent editorial it appears that at the
beginning of that period the totaI
strength OF all the churches in the
United States not including the Nor.
mons, theJews, fraSmen,ary bodies,
and Independent congregations, was
CH5,6lO churches, SLIT ministers,
and l7,267,17S communicates. In the
column of commandments, the Roman
Catholic Church was credited with g.
S32,954 which term includes all who
have been baptized whether commun-
icants or not. Now the same
churches have increased to 132,435
churches, 9l.91l ministers, and 49,
0lS,977 commandments. The table
represents the Roman Catholic Church
as having 100000 population, which
is gain of 167, 900 in the four years.
This is a remarkable increase, it is
stated, when we remem-
Der that the churches must numerical
ly receive enough new members to
supply the losses occasioned by death,
disci pine, and otherwise, before they
can reckon an increase. In the list Of
about sixty denominations there are
only three slight instances Of decline
in churches, ministers, or members,
and these exceptions are all OF small
denominations, the Moravians the
Swedenborgians, and the Universal
lists The latter has suffered most,
the two first have gained in member
ship, but lost in churches and minis
ters. It is happily remarked that this
statement comes with startling force
against the vague assumption, so wide
ly entertained, that the masses are
falling away from the churches anc
in consequence of the growth OF 50
called liberal opinion. Again quot
ing from the learned article, tho gains
Of the four years as distributed an one
the church families show that the
Methodists, including IA separate or
carnations, are to be credited with
more than one-half the net gain OF
ministers, more than third of the in
crease Of communicants, and about a
third of the gain of churches. The
following table IS worth
